Ye! Ye!

My interview at NEC Philippines was a short and easy one. Aside from the usual "why-I-want-to-work-there-Q&A", the HR head only threw personal questions and questions concerning my educational and family background. After that, she promised to transmit my resume to the executives and asked me to wait for their call some time in January 2007 for a series of interviews with the bosses. She informed me that they will be needing more engineers next year and assured me that my name will be endorsed to higher authorities. :) I have her word but I don't know if she has mine. While waiting for their call, I'll take chances at my other prospect companies like HP, San Miguel, Globe and Accenture.

UP EEE alumni who are reviewing at EXCEL are really enjoying our weekly sessions especially at times when some of us meet at McDo Recto to copy each other's answers to our homeworks, eat at carinderias and food establishments with incredibly low-low-priced student meals, strolling around the U-Belt during breaks, and right after making-"takas" before the third and last session starts during Sundays. We might end up as a bonded barkada by the time we take the Licensure Exam next year. We even have our own Yahoo! group, too!

The Amazing Race 10: The Barbies are Phil-iminated this morning (Manila time) and the Sistas became the first all-female team to qualify for a slot in the Final Three (Season Finale) of this hit reality competition alongside engaged Rob and Kimberly and models Tyler and James.

Doha Asian Games 2006: Have you watched the Opening Ceremonies last December 1st? The enkindling of the torch and cauldron was, for me, the most spectacular sporting event ceremony I have seen so far. However, has anyone heard about the Filipino athletes' rain-soaking-incident after the opening rites? Amidst a 30-minute downpour, many participants from the Philippines, Malaysia and Japan were barred from re-entering the stadium while waiting for their delayed transport buses that would take them to their villages. Anyway, four days has passed and our country has yet to win a single medal. Let's continue to pray for our fellowmen's success in Qatar.

PBA: Barangay Ginebra is now solo #1 in the team standings after a come-from-behind-win over Air21 last night with a score 116-105.

Philippine Idol: It all comes down to the ultimate showdown among Gian, Jan and Mau at the Big Dome. Final Performance Night will be held on the 8th while the Grand Results Night will be held on the 9th. I am rooting for either Gian or Mau to win. Jan is always off-key whenever he sings.

Survivor: Cook Islands: Candice was voted out last Friday afternoon (Manila time) via a 5-3 vote and became the fifth member of a 10-man jury. Seven castaways are left in dispute of the $1-million prize.

Christmas breeze is in the air. Carols are playing on radio stations and music players, cool winter wind from the north is already felt especially before daybreak, bargains/sales and shopping sprees happen almost everywhere and the workforce is already looking forward to large bonuses and holiday pays.

Sana magkatrabaho na ko. Andami ko pa namang inaanak na papamaskuhan. Haha...
